GESPEG COPPER INC. (TSX VENTURE:GCR) (the "Company" or "GESPEG") Gespeg is
pleased to announce the completion of a heliborne magnetic (MAG) and
spectrometric (SPEC) survey over its Vortex, In Between, and Murdochville
projects in the Gaspe region of Quebec (see
http://file.marketwire.com/release/Gaspesie_Geol.pdf).


During July and August 2012, Prospectair Geosurveys of Gatineau, Quebec;
surveyed a total of 9,128 line-kilometres over 3 of Gespeg's properties covering
a total of 1070 claims over about 585 square kilometers (Table 1). Various
computer techniques allowed the identification of a total of 436 magnetic
anomalies, 141 of which were defined as priority target by geophysicists.

The MAG survey conducted over the Company properties in the Gaspe region
(Vortex, In Between and Murdochville projects), was designed to produce new high
resolution data, with highly accurate depth prediction, in identifying anomalous
magnetic structures which have potential for precious and base metals
mineralization.


The SPEC survey identifies the concentration of potassium, a key factor in the
identification of areas affected by hydrothermal systems favourable to the
development of mineralization.


A study of mineral deposits and occurrences across the properties indicates that
pyrrhotite and magnetite (both magnetic) are frequently present in association
with mineralization observed. In fact, magnetic anomalies are observed for most
of these deposits/occurrences and strong anomalies are present at the depth of
the main deposits of Murdochville and at the Sullipek deposit. For these
reasons, the magnetic data are used to identify exploration targets. Most of the
deposits and occurrences also have anomalously high potassium (K)
concentrations. It is also well documented that hydrothermal systems associated
with intrusive stocks may be at the origin of porphyry copper deposits, altering
the surrounding rocks by potassium enrichment and creating replacement-type
Cu-skarn and Cu-Manto deposits in the surrounding carbonate rocks.
Potassium-rich areas that are coincident with magnetic anomalies are considered
to have higher potential for discoveries, and they establish an order of
priority for the investigation of the magnetic anomalies identified. The
management of the company is excited by the interpretations and are planning for
a summer 2013 campaign of preliminary ground exploration in order to explain the
anomalies defined as priorities. Geological and structural context will also be
integrated with the geophysical data in exploring these targets.

About Gespeg Copper: Gespeg Copper is an exploration company with a focus on
copper, especially in a region vastly under-explored for the last 2 decades in
one of the best jurisdiction in the world, "Gaspe, Quebec".


With a dedicated management team, their goal is to create shareholder wealth
through the discovery of new deposits.
